We had an absolutely amazing stay! The hosts went above and beyond—early check-in and late checkout made our trip so easy. The home is incredibly spacious with plenty of cozy hangout areas, from the huge open living space to the game areas with ping-pong and a pool table (they even DoorDashed extra ping-pong balls for us!). Every bedroom was comfortable, charmingly named, and perfectly themed.We enjoyed stunning sunsets every evening and loved gathering around the fire pit. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed for our Thanksgiving dinner, and the thoughtful touches—a bag of ice and a full s’mores kit waiting for us—made it even more special. It was the perfect place for our families to celebrate together. Highly recommend!
What a WONDERFUL venue for a family gathering. Another great feature...the property is "senior" friendly. Spaciousness, private bathrooms for 6 of the bedrooms, well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable beds are just a few of the outstanding features of this property. Christa was great to work with. She was extremely responsive to my questions. All the cousins said they want to come back again.
Fantastic property for our large group! Private bathrooms for each bedroom & huge gathering space! So many games, toys, & activities for all age groups!
Very responsive hosts. Our family had a fantastic week!
Thank you for giving our family of 20 such a beautiful place to stay while we attended my son’s wedding at Deep in The Heart Farms. Everyone enjoyed the setting, amenities, separate bedrooms each with its own bathroom, the pool and video games. Coffee in the mornings on the back porch and gathering in the den to chat. Every thing was just perfect!
We recently stayed at this house for our wedding, and it was absolutely perfect. We also hosted our rehearsal dinner here, and the house was ideal for all our activities. The size of the house was just right, providing plenty of space for our guests to feel comfortable and enjoy themselves. Everything was great, from the well-appointed rooms to the lovely outdoor areas. We couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate such a special occasion. Highly recommend!
22 ladies get together for junking at Round Top and a crafting retreat. Suburban Country Charm and Charmed by Sage, on Facebook, put this group together for a 4 night 5 day junking/crafting retreat. This barn’s was perfect to fit all of us and the supplies. Very clean, very organized, very spacious! Loved the whole trip!!
Loved the big open space in the living room. It was great for everyone to hang out without getting in each other's hair. Lol. The kids and teens had a blast. My teenage nieces loved the dress up clothes!
What an amazing venue! Everything was exactly as described in the listing. We held a family reunion here and everyone commented how nice the place is, how fun all the games & activities were and how everyone felt right at home. The venue and the hosts were so amazing, we're thinking of doing a reunion every year at 12 Armadillos!
Our girls grip loved the home! It was fabulous and very well stocked! The host even had a scavenger hunt and we won a prize, which was a game! So cute! Host was great with communication with any questions we had prior to going to the house and very accommodating! We had no issues while we there! All beds were comfortable! Will definitely book again when we stay in this area!
This property was perfect for our baseball family. Everyone had their space and had a good time. We usually want to check out downtown everywhere we visit. Not this time!!! We cooked, ate and had fun. We didn’t want to leave the property u less we were playing baseball.
We were in town for a friends wedding and jumped at the opportunity to get the family together. With all the amenities and location to town, yet out of town, 12 Armadillos couldn’t have been more perfect for us. Closest thing to bringing the “whole house” with us. Space, comfort, and cleanliness surpassed our expectations. Will definitely return when visiting the area again.
We are already looking for a reason to return.
This was the most amazing and absolutely perfect place to stay! The house was clean, well stocked and the host Christa was PERFECT!! So responsive and attentive to our needs!! We will definitely be back to this house for a getaway to the country!! Highly recommend this house and 12 Armadillos in general for a place to stay with a large group!! The bathroom in each of the 6 rooms downstairs was an AMAZING GAME CHANGER!!
